Won't somebody turn the lights on It's getting kind of dark in here Think I'll hang out with a bad crowd Drink myself into the new year I'm taking off work today Driving downtown for an early matinee Trying to keep the blues away What I'm trying to say is That I'm a little tired of taking care Of everyone but myself I put it on the wishlist Just put it on the wishlist And I've been feeling this way forever I decide to wait til December And put it on the wishlist Just put it on the wishlist I had a dream that I moved away I was waiting for my song to play Thought it was gonna be next Once I was through I could rest Loosen the knot in my chest But it never came Sorry its not what you wanted I tried my best I did it for you Filled up our tiny apartment I thought that you wanted me to Now I'm a little tired of taking care Of everyone but myself I put it on the wishlist Just put it on the wishlist I've been feeling this way forever I decide to wait til December And put it on the wishlist Just put it on the wishlist I'll have it all Silk sheets and curtains on the wall And a tiny dog named Couscous I'll bring to every mall We'll shop for diamond collars I'll spend a million dollars No one can tell me what to do I'm gonna take my turn Take my turn Watch and learn Take my turn I'm a little tired of taking care Of everyone but myself I put it on the wishlist Just put it on the wishlist I've been feeling this way forever I decide to wait to til December And put it on the wishlist I guess I'll put it on the wishlist I guess I'll put it on the wishlist
